Marc and the Mambas – Untitled
With Marc Almond, I’m going to run into my first series of serious problems with doing this project in alphabetical order. (Or any order, for that matter). First, there’s the problem of an artist...

Alligator Records — 50 Years of Genuine Houserockin’ Music
We’re doing some catch-up. A lot of catch-up, to be honest. (So much catch-up I’m creating a new category for it so I can go back and alphabetize these things properly later.) Since my...

ABC – The Lexicon of Love
Moving down the alphabet but not moving out of pop. I was playing a video from this album last night, and my grownkid said of ’80s music generally that maybe you had to be...
ABBA – Super Trouper
Despite being from 1980, I just bought this one a few weeks ago — and now I realize there’s going to be an occasional problem going through my records in alphabetical order if I...
